Abstract
Methodology for the analysis of compounds in seawater has developed rapidly during recent years, together with a markedly increased interest in chemical data to characterize the marine environment. Flow injection analysis (FIA) can play a significant role in laboratory automation for many traditional wet chemical methods, and can serve as the basis for new methods which have no conventional analog. The FIA technique permits the analysis of a great number of samples, rapidly and reliably. This review discusses the present status and potential applications of FIA in the determination of anions and organic species in seawater analysis.
